About A Touch of Salt
A Touch of Salt is a restaurant on the ground floor of Metro Quays, at 86 to 124 Ogden Street in Townsville City. It sits where the city meets the waterfront and opens for dinner every night, with lunch on Fridays. The restaurant takes on functions of many styles. Its own list covers Christmas parties, birthdays, anniversaries, small celebrations, weddings of every size, corporate events, fundraisers and degustation dinners. For a cocktail party, the venue holds up to 300 guests. Seated banquets take up to 120, and hosts can ask for the balcony on its own or the restaurant and balcony together. The kitchen builds its menus around quality seasonal produce, with plant-based dishes, seafood and heartier meat plates. Gluten-free and dairy-free needs can be catered for on request. Function menus, beverage packages and seating plans are all adjustable to suit the event. Outside the regular Friday sitting, lunch functions can be arranged by appointment for groups, with lunch packages available. The same team also runs an off-site catering service, so a party too big or too different for the dining room can still be catered elsewhere in the city.
